Chapter 350 - 350 339 Buying a Villa
?Chapter 350: Chapter 339: Buying a Villa Chapter 350: Chapter 339: Buying a Villa After removing the 130 million greenbacks used for forex trading, there was still over 53 million left. Lu Jiaxin allocated 10 million each to Standard Chartered and Worldwide Precious Metals. She inquired with two stockbrokers, and although they didn’t refuse her desire to place short orders for greenbacks/Japanese yen, they could only accept trades within 5 million, and without using leverage. A mosquito may be small, but it still has its flesh, so Lu Jiaxin invested 5 million in both banks. The rest of the money was used to buy stocks, as she purchased ten blue-chip stocks. Once the money was diversified, there were only over 23 million greenbacks left in her HSBC account.
Nie Zhan helped Lu Jiaxin look for villas, hoping she would purchase one in Shallow Bay, so that the two of them, living near each other, could meet more often. However, there was no property that met her requirements upon inquiry. Instead, there were several villas in Deep Water Bay that fit her criteria.
Hearing there were three luxurious mansions for sale in Deep Water Bay, Lu Jiaxin expressed her surprise, “Why are there so many owners selling their mansions in Deep Water Bay?”
It was only through asking that she found out, these people had all purchased elsewhere. It quickly dawned on Lu Jiaxin that currently, the Peak was where the top tycoons lived, followed by Shallow Bay. These two locations housed the ultra-rich, and comparatively, Deep Water Bay was a notch below.
It wasn’t that Deep Water Bay didn’t have a good environment; on the contrary, the area was nice and only more than ten kilometers from the city, which was very convenient. However, due to political considerations, the British developed Shallow Bay first. Also, because of the geographical advantages of Deep Water Bay, it later still became a gathering place for the top tycoons.
Lu Jiaxin, with a beaming smile, said, “Okay, let’s go see the houses on Sunday.”
On Saturday, filled with eagerness, Lu Jiaxin went with Nie Zhan to see the villas. Among the three, the first one, lacking a garden, was immediately ruled out, the second had luxurious decor and was priced too high; the last villa was decently renovated, but its small garden was a let-down.
